KazuScaraHei Oneshot

(A post after... half a year!? Wow. I'm so indecisive... Like do I like writing or not?? Anyways here's a Genshin fic! Modern uni au. Yw <3)

Heizou sighs heavily as he flops onto his back. He's awfully tired and would do anything to stay laying on this couch but- he heard a knock. It doesn't take too many brain cells to guess who's knocking but, why, is a different equation.

"Heizou, you bastard! Open the door!" Heizou groans in annoyance, he has to forcefully lift himself from the comfort of the couch to straggle tiredly over to the front door. He opens the door, revealing a snappy, intimidating Scaramouche - so... just typical Scara.

"You're glaring as if I'm the one who made you forget your key." He tells the boy in a deadpan. Scaramouche knows the rough translation of that statement is; "don't be mad at me because you're an idiot" which ticks him off further. "Who the hell said I forgot my key?" He sneers. Heizou gives him an unimpressed look.

"Well," he huffs, "contrary to popular belief, Scara - mainly yours - I'm not a complete idiot." Scaramouche pushes past him into their shared apartment with a small mumbled "idiot" being all that escapes his lips. He would start teasing Scaramouche about how much he "actually loves him" and is "just a tsundere" but he's still too tired from having just taken his exam earlier. He instead sighs, "After all this time you still act as if you dislike me." He puts on a show of putting a hand over his heart and feigning offense. Scarmouche doesn't grant him a look at his face as he keeps his pace to his room,

"...Because I do."

Oh yeah.

How silly of him to forget.

-

Being told he's disliked usually doesn't get to him - he's heard it plenty of times already after all, but being disliked by someone you wish to love you back cuts ten times deeper. He feels as silly as he did half a year ago when he first realized his feelings for Scara. What was the meaning of loving something you can never have? How did this even happen? But most of it all, why did everything have to hurt so damn much?

He's spiraling again. He knows it and knows better than anyone where this leads. He forces his gaze up from mindlessly staring at the table, oh, he'd almost forgotten; he's still in class. To be on the brink of tears in class... How pathetic-

"Heizou, you alright?"

Heizou looks up to see the one responsible for the interruption of his thoughts.

"Kazu.. ha?"

Kazuha gives him a soft smile in return, "That's my name."

Man alive. Scara's boyfriend is the last person he wants to see right now.

Kaedehara Kazuha, he thinks to himself. Scara's childhood friend and in the same major as the other. An all-around 'pretty boy' and gentleman that has a way with words, everyone loves him, and...

Hm. Did he forget to mention pretty?

"Class ended a while ago but you've still been sitting here spaced out." The white-haired boy tells him and he can't help but think that Kazuha's too good to him, the way his eyebrows are scrunched as he looks at him with such concern is nothing less than adorabl—

"I-I'm sorry to worry you!" He says, surprised by his own thoughts, why must they always betray him? "I'm just, you know, worried about.. grades..?"

Kazuha blinks in confusion. That was such an obvious lie, his cheeks redden in embarrassment. Kazuha lets out a soft laugh at his response, causing him to redden further because god, his laugh is so adorable. He never knows what to say around Kazuha. Mainly because the first thoughts that come into his head were never very... pg? Especially towards a man in a relationship.
